Scholwinski Tabbed as Next Softball Coach at Community Colleges of Spokane

Lindsie Scholwinski has been chosen to be the next softball coach at Community Colleges of Spokane. Scholwinski is taking over for Paco Crandall who served as the head coach for the past two seasons. Lindsie is a graduate of Coeur d’ Alene High school and was their head softball coach this past season.

Scholwinski was a pitcher at Community Colleges of Spokane from 2013-2015. In 2015 she was named NWAC Baden player of the year, leading Spokane to the NWAC Championship. In that championship season, she posted a record of 29-0 with a 0.81 ERA. She also set the school record for single season strikeouts with 278.

Upon leaving Spokane, she attended Southeastern University. At Southeastern she set the single season strikeout record with 304 and helped lead them to a 3rd place finish at the 2016 NAIA World Series.

Scholwinski is excited on returning to coach the Sasquatch, “I am beyond words for this opportunity and to return to my old stomping grounds. I am very excited and honored to coach this team and grow with them on and off the field every day. I am really looking forward to the things I am going to learn and the knowledge I get to share with the team also on and off the field. This is going to be an amazing year and I am excited to be a Squatch again and be a part of this program."

Spokane Athletic Director Ken Burrus said,
“Lindsie will make a great addition to the Sasquatch team. She is a driven competitor and a fine professional. We are excited about having her teach and coach for the Community Colleges of Spokane.”
